Default The Worlds Most Powerful IS-F

See it here: The Worlds Most Powerful IS-F

E. Kanoo's at it again. the purveyor of high horsepower customs turned their attention to the IS-F last year. With the help of Titan Motorsports and some nitrous, they coaxed 630 hp from that racy V8. If only we could see it at the track. Hit the link above to see the dyno run.

Got a more powerful IS-F? Post it below!

yeah that video has been on youtube for quite some time. There are a few F's on here that are making less power, and posting better times.

Slay I've seen you post about some new modifications to your F in terms of weight reduction and more power. What you got cookin for us???

Here are the plans

Power: Not much more to do here as the car makes around 600whp as it sits... So might not need to make much more

Im 100% sure that im gong to
Port and Polish the intake manifold and throttle body
Change the exhaust setup
Change the Nitrous setup to one that is nitrogen assisted
Ive had a turbo kit for my car for over 2 years thats just been sitting in my spare room that I can use as a last resort lol.

Weight:
Sparco Evo 2 or Status Racing seats are in store, just haven't made a choice yet.
Im going to be gutting the car down to the bare minimum and work from there. I dont really care about every day comfort, so I predict well be pretty extensive in what we take out the car. Though im going to have a dash and navigation no matter what.

Also gong to be going with an aftermarket coilover setup. I believe that a 30lbs loss has been documented somewhere after the upgrade.

As it sits now, my car is competitive with a 135mph GTR from a roll, so im looking to run with cars in the low 140mph range when im done. My goal is to get the car down to 3400lbs, but im sure it will be lighter when im done. At that point, car should run well with the power its making.

E. Kanoo & Family's estimated net worth is in the 6-7 billion. If he wanted to make the IS-F real fast he could, i'm sure of it.

Maybe everyone should talk hella **** about his slow 1/4 mile time with 630whp so he will spend the $$ and develop an IS-F reflash for himself that we could buy, haha j/k

SRT intake....Lolz

This might be something worth considering for the big HP numbers:

ICODE is doing some amazing things right now. Expensive, but very impressive nonetheless.

I'll take one for the team and be the douche to do it if it will get us a tune jk but if I had that money I would be more than willing to do the r&d for the F community. I don't think an IS-F would be my biggest car interest though with that budget

This guy may not be the best at the 1/4 mile but this beast will tear the asphalt on a roll
